Sex and the art of motorcycle maintenance 19

Just think of it as surrealism applied to one's life; or perhaps existentialism in one's attitude; or perennialism in preparing a coffee; or minimalism in one's habit. Wala akong maisip ngayon na isulat dito maliban sa pakiramdam na; I'm bored philosophizing. Ano kaya kung ipractice na ang mga -ism -ism na ito? Wala na ang hang-over ko sa zeit geist kaya binababad ko na naman ang aking sarili sa konsepto ng Generation X na ating kinabibilangan ngayon; those who were born between 1965-1980 (that's give & take). Reliquinshing one's individuality can be worse than death and what's make truth stranger than fiction is because of its accuracy. The potency of some words becomes impotent if the intention becomes obvious. If faith and religion is subjective then what makes the concept of salvation absolute? Faith must not be confined to dogmatism; one must experience it and act into it. Some chess grandmasters found their best insights from the amateurs. There are countless philosophical fallacies that made us like this. That made our system like this. Freewill--choices, is it a blessing or is it a curse? Most of us are afraid of philosohy and questions like these--why? Because most of us are afraid to confront themselves. Word count: does it matters?
